on YouTube ↗25m

" summary

Concrete recipes for Angular + Jest unit testing: shows how to spy on named imports to test pure functions, how to cast overload to a specific function type to stub an overloaded pipe, and how to use HttpTestingController with flush and HTTP error responses to verify error handling. Demonstrates async control with fakeAsync/tick and when to subscribe, recommends pragmatic mocking (avoid over‑mocking), and shows nx test/watch commands to run or focus tests.
